Will they set the record?

Will the Cavs officially set the record for the most consecutive losses, from a single season, in a row? We shall know by Saturday at this time. They have now lost a franchise record 22 in a row, just one shy of the 97/98 Nuggets and the 95/96 Grizzlies record of 23 losses in a row. Ironically the team that they next face, and would have to beat to stave off the humiliation of being associated with the aforementioned teams, is the Grizzlies. If the Cavs do not survive that game they then have to travel back home to face the Blazers in order to keep from owning one of the most embarrassing NBA records of all time.

So; will they set the record and what will their final consecutive loss total be?

I think they set the record. I'll pick their home game on February 9 against the Pistons to be the next win, which would set the streak at 25. The Pistons will have played against San Antonio the night before while the Cavaliers will be coming off a day's rest.
